Consumer Privacy Standards
Privacy Policy. Strict Data Minimization.
How 1800HomeUSA protects your privacy: zero online lead forms, no data brokering, and transparent telephony practices.
Our Commitment to Consumer Privacy
At 1800HomeUSA, we believe that seeking emergency home services should not result in aggressive sales calls or compromised personal information. Unlike traditional home improvement portals that capture consumer contact information to resell to multiple contractors, 1800HomeUSA operates under a strict principle of data minimization.
1. Information We Collect and Process
Inbound Telephone Communications: When you call a phone number displayed on 1800HomeUSA, your call is connected to an independent local service provider via an automated telephony routing platform. The telephony platform processes standard Call Detail Records (CDR)—including the caller telephone number, time of call, call duration, and geographic area code—solely to route the call to a provider serving your area and verify the referral. Calls may be monitored or recorded for quality assurance and compliance in accordance with state two-party consent statutes.
Website Usage Telemetry: When you access our website, our servers automatically log standard technical request headers, including your IP address, browser user-agent, referring URL, and page timestamps. We utilize self-hosted, privacy-focused PostHog analytics proxied through our secure domain (f.1800homeusa.com) to measure site reliability and performance. We do not use third-party cross-site advertising cookies or commercial tracking pixels.
2. No Sale of Personal Information
1800HomeUSA does not sell, rent, lease, or broker your personal information or telephone number to third-party data aggregators or telemarketers. We do not participate in commercial data exchange networks.
3. State Privacy Rights (CCPA / CPRA, VCDPA, CPA)
Residents of California, Virginia, Colorado, and other states with enacted consumer privacy laws have statutory rights regarding their personal data:
- Right to Know: You may request details regarding the categories and specific pieces of personal information collected.
- Right to Deletion: You may request that we delete any personal data collected from you, subject to legal verification and statutory exceptions.
- Right to Non-Discrimination: You will never receive discriminatory pricing or service for exercising your statutory privacy rights.
